Carbon Technology For Chemical, Gas, and Odor Absorption

AllerAir claims that what makes its air purifiers different is that their carbon beds are deeper than any other air purifiers. The company offers up to 40 different proprietary carbon blends. AllerAir carbon beds use granular pieces of carbon, not crushed carbon. The carbon beds are customizable – a client can order anywhere between four pounds and 120 pounds of carbon to result in better absorption of chemicals, gasses and odors. AllerAir states that their carbon beds have a longer lifespan and greater absorption capacity than those of competing brands.

AllerAir houses their units in metal rather than plastic, and use powder-coated paint to prevent off gassing. To increase filtration and extend the performance of the HEPA filter, AllerAir carbon filters are lined with two additional pre-filters. Since the carbon canisters can be refilled, AllerAir air purifiers are very environmentally friendly and cost effective.
